A Message From Liz Hilton
At over 25,000 members strong, the Texas Law alumni network is one of the largest for any law school in the country. Longhorn lawyers span the globe as leaders in virtually every sector. They are a tremendous asset and invaluable resource for the school and our students; for practicing and non-practicing lawyers everywhere; and, of course, for the communities in which we work, live and serve.
I am honored to serve the law school and our unrivaled alumni community as Executive Director for Alumni Relations & Development. As a second generation Texas Law alumna myself, I know what a difference our alumni make. For example:
• Alumni have contributed over $30 million in the past three years for the Endowment for Excellence, so we can recruit the best and the brightest students to Texas Law.• More than 500 alumni serve as mentors to current students, providing a rich experience for both mentor and mentee.
• Trustees of the Law School Foundation—all alumni, of course—provide leadership and support for the foundation and the law school.
• The Alumni Association Executive Committee creates alumni-led Steering Committees around Texas and the country to connect with peers, recruit great future lawyers, and increase support for the school.
• Class committees help classmates stay connected and bring energy and ideas to reunion events.
• Alumni at law firms energize our 100% Giving campaign, encouraging fellow alums in the firm to commit to our annual fund every year.
As you see, the work of my office is only possible with the enthusiastic participation of many alumni. I hope I can help you get involved in the way that is most meaningful for you. Let me hear from you—and come by and visit when you’re in Austin!
Kind regards
Liz Hilton, B.A. '86, J.D. '90
